In loving memory of Brenda 'Bren' Ford who passed away peacefully on 26th April 2026 at Langley Lodge.

She was the most wonderful wife, mum and nanny (Nanny Brenny) who touched the lives of everyone she ever met. She will leave a huge hole in the lives of everyone who had the privilege of knowing her.

During her last few years she lived with dementia and therefore we kindly ask people to donate in her memory to Alzheimer's Society. If you would prefer, flowers are also more than welcome.

We will be celebrating her life at Basildon Crematorium (Gardenside) at 12:30pm on Monday 18th May. Afterwards, we will be heading to The Gun Pub (SS13 2DU) - everyone is welcome.

Nanny Brenny, you’ll always have a place in my heart. Thank you for every moment we shared — short as they were, they meant the world to me. Thank you for being so sweet, unconditional, and for being such a wonderful mother and grandmother. I know you’re in a better place watching over us now. Rest in peace. With all my love, your grandson, Zak
